Good Morning! I got up in the middle of the night, just to perform my duty of moving the Diner to its March location. I took that supersonic flight to Japan, only to found out the Diner had been moved already! Not a bad place, the Pacific Northwest. Certainly had the best time of my life while I was there as a kid of 17. Bainbridge Island was the place, surrounded by the waters of Puget Sound, just opposite of Seattle. I have lots of fond memories on taking the ferry to Seattle and watching schools of Orcas plowing through the water, memories of wonderful hikes through the Olympic Mountains ... Those were good days! Thanks, Galaxy, for moving the Diner to one of my favorite places in the US! Ken - I am keeping my fingers crossed that your work issue will be settled and this Larry gets what he deserves. Unfortunately, it´s those sneaky creeps who often win - what a world! Jeff - I love that rail bus! It was introduced in Germany in the early 1950´s to make branch line passenger service more economical and was actually quite effective, though not really comfortable. They were built like buses and had a simple truck diesel engine for power, giving them a unique sound. They disappeared from German rails in the mid 1980´s, many of them were sold to countries ll over the world.  The East German Reichsbahn built a copy of it, which was appropriately nicknamed "Ferkeltaxi" or "piglet´s taxi". Have a good one!
